Terminals have nylon insulation that remains...

7 Steps to Optimize Your Spring Design for Your Next Project

This white paper provides an in-depth overview into how to optimize a compression spring design in seven steps.

Quick-Change Parallels fits company's 4 and 6 in. vises.

Clak system aligns and locks into position on vise jaw plates, eliminating manual clamping and locking up of jaw components. Construction consists of 2 spring-loaded steel balls in base that snap into and lock corresponding jaw plate. Precision hardened and ground parallels slide and lock into place without need for hand tools. Offered in various heights, 6 pairs of parallels come as 1 set, boxed...

Pull Handles are constructed of stainless steel.

Available in various sizes with satin and mirror finishes, handles are NSF certified and meet Food Equipment Industry Standard. Applications include pharmaceutical, chemical, and marine industries.

Polymer Bearings provide snap-in installation.

Type 7 Nylon(TM) bearings provide double-flange construction that assures positive bearing retention for installation in thin plates. Available in metric and inch sizes, units offer .001 in. min diameter shaft-to-bearing clearance and compensation gap that allows bearings to be collapsed. Requiring no lubrication, corrosion-resistant products come in 7 sleeve, flanged, and snap-in types. Bearings...

Jaw Couplings provide various dampening characteristics.

Fail safe Jawflex(TM) zero backlash jaw couplings are three-piece couplings comprised of two hubs and elastic element and come in two hardness levels. Polyurethane material on jaw provides dampening of impulse type loads and minimizes shock to motor and sensitive equipment. Couplings are available from .59-2.25 in. OD in both set screw style and NOMARÃ-® clamp style and inch and metric bore...

Clamp Lever has soft-touch surface.

AXL Clamp Lever has Pure Touch(TM) thermoplastic elastomer inlays, rounded edge design, and reinforced fiberglass body. Unit can be adjusted to 20-45 positions, with and without load. Pulling up on handle disengages unit to swivel into desired clamping position. Releasing re-engages clamp for tightening and loosening. Available in charcoal and black, product utilizes one TORX(TM) head adjustment...

Rotary Shaft Seals handle extreme operating conditions.

ROTAFLON(TM) seals handle high surface speed, high temperature, high pressure, and insufficient lubrication. Series MC has polymer seal lip with or without embedded spring energizer. Series RB offers polymer sealing surface bonded to elastomeric seal lip. Seals are chemical resistant and handle surface speed up to 5900 ft/min and temperature range of -58 to +500Ã-

Basalt America Announces Stronger, Lighter, and Corrosion-Free FRP's (Fiber Reinforced Polymers)

Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP), represents a truly groundbreaking advancement in structural reinforcement. Lightweight, strong, and green, they are changing the way the construction industry thinks about rebar. Unlike steel, FRPs don't rust and are far stronger than standard rebar. To learn why Fiber Reinforced Polymers are poised to change the way the world builds, see our video.
